I. Program Overview

Safe Day Events conducts lessons plus musical performances in a variety of Oahu Hawaii School District public and private Middle, High, and College Programs and for programs that service Youth-At-Risk. Several Safe Day Staff are qualified as teachers, and those who are not certified are given updated and specific training to increase student self esteem, team work, and life skills, support healthy problem solving and learning, give a sense of belonging and responsibility in the community, foster positive changes in attitude and behaviors, and improve interpersonal skills.

Department of Education Teachers and families with students who are classified by the Department of Education as having at-risk challenges and who are in need of increasing their Performance Expectations are especially invited to collaborate, to the best of their ability, with Safe Day Staff to successfully produce events. Safe Day Events is available to private school students, families, and teachers, too.

Successful implementation of this goal enables Safe Day Staff to provide a quarterly newsletter, frequent training, and additional activities where “Safe Teams” are engaged in entrepreneurial activities and fund raisers with our Safe Day Packs, that have the potential to earn thousands of dollars for their programs. Systematic and structured lessons prepared as dramas, stories, discussions, and entertainment increase school attendance, increase school performance and make a better and safer environment for all our youth, especially our youth-at-risk.

Safe Day Events (www.safedayevents.com) is a new project using a “best practices” three-prong approach. Having an awareness campaign, attractive empowering inspirational music, and exciting products and services in a 45 to 90 minute program entails: (1) a character development lesson about how to have a “Personal Safety Plan” with discussions and pre/post-activities (20 to 30 minutes), (2) LIVE entertainment (25 to 45 minutes), and (3) plenty of follow-up including an annual membership in an activities club using a new state-of-the-art safe Internet Browser (15 minutes). This entire program evokes practical hands-on experiences and maintains core character values. Our goal is for participants to feel compelled to choose and practice right thinking, feeling, and acting before, during and after a program.

Safe Day Events demographics and target population is primarily for students of middle school and high school (ages 8 to 20), teachers, staff, and parents on Oahu. Through existing and evolving strategic partnerships with administrators of school events, community-based organization events, public and private organization events, and service agency events, our staff collaborates and determines in an orientation meeting with administrators the following info: a) when and where an event is to occur; b) pre-and-post session dates; c) specific needs and concerns revealed using the “Youth at Risk Behavior Survey” or other tested assessment surveys d) a preparation event check-list; and e) motivators and incentives to increase support and collaboration among teachers, parents, community and students.

II. Experience and Capability

Why Safe Day Events is needed? According to The Commonwealth Fund 1998 Survey, one in five women will be sexually assaulted in their lifetime (Collins KS SC, Joseph S, et al, 1999). Sexual assault, robbery, drug abuse and violence have been observed in record numbers on our college campuses. There is a strong relationship between sexual assault and drug use. In a study, "Estimate of the Incidence of Drug Facilitated Sexual Assault in the USA", 61% of 144 subjects were taking drugs, 35% were raped. (Negrusz, Juhascik, Gaensslen, 2005). In Hawaii, according to the Kapi’olani Medical Center for Women & Children Sex Abuse Treatment Center, statistics show the following prevalence: One in four girls and one in six boys will be sexually assaulted by age 18. (Finkelhor, et al.1990) One in seven women have experienced a completed forcible rape during their lives. (Ruggiero, Kilpatrick. 2003) One in six American women report having experienced an attempted or completed rape in their lifetime. (Tjaden, Thoennes 2000). One in 33 American men reports having experienced an attempted or completed rape in their lifetime.

These grim statistics continue to plague our communities despite continuous interventions by schools and communities with over 300 programs earmarked for funding, according to ncfy.acf.hhs.gov/publications/disadvantaged/AppendixH. The root of these behaviors most often stems from beliefs inculcated by verbal programming, modeling, and specific incidences very early in life. In Hawaii, over 50% of youth have been identified with some form of at-risk factor: a high percentage are youth with low socio-economics, special education, or limited English proficiency (Meda Chesney-Lind, 2003).

Also contributing to this is the entertainment industry, which provides a parade of mixed messages to counteract school and family interventions. Video games, feature shows, films, websites and live entertainment are a stable and viable influence that taps into a young mind to communicate proper or improper messages and celebrity role models undeniably have a very powerful influence on our culture (Anderson, Bushman, 2001).

Just as teachers strive to motivate their students with kinesthetic, visual, musical, verbal, artful, attractive lessons based on their individualized needs, Safe Day Events staff will support teachers with a multi-media Character Education Module. Teachers have contended that even dull science lessons have become more palatable after “The Magic School Bus” series enhanced traditional textbook lesson plans. Safe Day Events’ intention is to make “safety” highly palatable and beneficial to produce positive change in youth and families who are at-risk.

Since 2005 in Hawaii, for example, Sounding Joy Music Therapy Services has facilitated positive social interaction and decision-making, self-empowerment, emotional wellness, coping skills and the abstinence of at-risk behaviors with clinical and evidence-based music therapy programs for youth at risk. A substantial body of literature exists to support the effectiveness of music worldwide to change behavior even without the use of a credentialed professional from an approved music therapy program (Journal of Music Therapy, Music Therapy Perspectives, 2005).

Video and Internet education industries are among the fastest growing segment of the global educational economy. According to Forrester Research, more than 228 million computer and video games were sold in 2005, almost 2 games to every household in America. Furthermore, concert ticket sales reached $3.6 billion in North American Revenue. According to the Recording Industry Association of America, downloading single songs increased 163.3% form 2004 to 2005. Many students who are raised with these multi-faceted opportunities cope with school as if it is a doldrum, thus they resort to truancy, frustration, and low performance, thus getting into unsafe behaviors.

Because of the above references, Safe Day Events effectively combines music and lessons with a positive, impactful, enduring message, modeling real life conflict resolution in a captivating musical show.

A. Necessary Skills

Marilyn Rodgers, after 31 years of teaching, conceived of Safe Day Events. A Hawaii Department of Education Teacher, University of Hawaii Masters Program Graduate from Dr. Mary Jo Noonan’s Inclusion Specialist Program, Marilyn developed and taught the first Family Treatment Center Education Program for at-risk severe adolescents at Queens Medical Center from 1998 to 2001.

This challenging position compelled Marilyn to design interventions for these students who had fastidious behavioral and emotional challenges by collaborating with her husband Buck Rodgers in order to be a more effective teacher. Bill “Buck” Rodgers has been an entertainer since childhood, public access TV Show Producer, experienced Hawaii Department of Education “Artists in the Schools” Performer and Substitute Teacher. Marilyn began developing methodology for children with emotional and behavioral challenges in classrooms since 1994 in Big Island’s Pahoa Elementary School under Principal Nalani Sing; Lanikai Elementary Charter School under Principal Donna Estomago in 2001, Myron B. Thompson Academy Internet Program under Principal Diana Oshiro in 2004, and Kalaheo High School under Principal Dr. Schlosser in 2005. With her husband, they are interested in augmenting the No Child Left Behind legislative policies by researching and implementing “best practices” in character education, entrepreneurial skill development, performing arts, and technology. Music, performing, acting, and video is a strong motivator in all their programs and classrooms.

An excellent example of how inter-agency collaboration used music is the Roskilde Music Festival, the third largest concert in Europe since 2003. More than 75,000 guests and 25,000 staff attend. The festival promoters worked with the Department of Health to create an intervention to establish a norm within youth culture against drugs, through the use of mass media campaigns and informative materials.

Due to the success of their first initiative, by 2005, they launched a national campaign project subsidized by the National Board of Health involving various festival planners. The campaign included an anti-drug statement in the Roskilde festival program, on the website, a logo, Go-cards (electronic as well as printed), car streamers, badges, posters and fact folders on drugs. The campaign encouraged debate and discussion about drug use among the participants at the Roskilde festival. The anti-drug statement in the festival program and in large screen spots before major concerts and in buses were some of the elements considered to have had maximum effect. Evaluations claim that drug prevention messages at Roskilde festival reached 80 % of the participants, while 29 % discussed the campaign with their friends and 93 % agreed that it was a good idea. In addition, a new peer counseling prevention and harm reduction initiative entitled ‘Are you experienced?’, financed by the Ministry of Social Affairs aimed at drug users at the Roskilde festival was established. This was based in a graffiti-painted bus near the electronic music area, where former drug users provided counseling, information and practical support to young people.

Out of this work, Denmark’s Roskilde Music Festival and England’s the Center for Public Health, Club Health 2008 Program outlined ‘Safer clubbing’ guidelines. These guidelines, developed by organizers, club owners, organizations and prevention agencies, aim to create a safe physical environment. Health hazards in recreational settings arise from how events are organized, from overcrowding, poor ventilation, lack of affordable drinking water, violence and accidents from broken glass. Guidelines deal with drug dealing and the training of door supervisors to organize searches and supervise toilet areas. Training in first aid and early detection of drug-induced problems is included. Sometimes, ‘amnesty bins’ are put next to entrances. Recommendations for drug prevention by distributing information and outreach teams are included.

The guidelines include aspects related to local communities, for example promoting liaison with local agencies and police officers to organize safe transportation and ensure that people can get home safely. These guidelines are effectively being applied in Belgium, northern Italy and the United Kingdom, and can be viewed on their website http://www.clubhealth.org.uk.

On a much smaller scale, Safe Day Events is initiating a collaboration with the Hawaii School Safety Manager Program, and is inviting celebrity participation and is providing similar effective social and psychological support to intervene drug, alcohol, violence and school truancy in Hawaii’s youth.

Currently, as business managers and musical guest members of their son’s band, Marilyn and Bill “Buck” Rodgers support their own sons’ positive growth by keeping them busy in the performing arts. Danny (18) and Jai (23) grew up on the Big Island from 1986 to 1998 on a solar energy farm growing fruits and vegetables. They participated in healthy living programs as part of their family business and the family band, The Allright Family Band. When they moved into Oahu schools in 1998, one of the first observations they shared was that “kids push in the lunch line”, and they wondered why this was so. Obviously they were raised in a rural relaxed culture and this is evident in the theme of their music.

They have a well-rounded musical repertoire of original and classic hits. With 2 recorded CDs, radio and weekly TV airplay, 3-4 performances per week, and a few mainland tours under their belt, they have chosen Safe Day Events to be part of their mission. Safe Day Events is not a program to promote the band. Rather, the band’s efforts will be to attract fans, friends, celebrities and supporters who have adopted a non-drug, non sex-abuse, non-alcohol abuse policy and will promote Safe Day Events, too.

They are creating a “winning” brand to cultivate healthy living in their listeners. They are diligently working to evoke respect and good emotions among young and old alike. Brands like the Beatles, Elvis Presley, Star Wars, and Harry Potter have gone beyond brand status and have created such a strong link that audiences are willing to display icons on their garment, attend a fan festival, or line up for the next product. “Lifestyle” brands weave themselves into lives delivering superior results into communities while presenting a model worth emulating.

As the first of many celebrity endorsers of Safe Day Events, they are nurturing strong family ties. They have provided their music primarily to benefit other good community causes, most notably in 2007 for Mayor Mufi Hanneman’s “Sunset on the Beach” Program, The American Diabetes Association Fundraiser Luncheon, Crime Stoppers Fundraiser, Kaneohe’s Marine's “Blues-on-the-Bay” Festival, Castle Hospital’s Breast Cancer Research Fundraiser “Cool Hawaii Nights”, to name a few. Additional history, resumes, photos, and music videos are available on their website. These performers appreciate and value cultural diversity, provide models to reduce drugs, alcohol, and violence, and are adaptable to the needs of multi-generations and multi-cultures in their lyrics, message and music. They are excited about making a living and working in the community with Safe Day Events.

B. Experience

On December 11, 2007, Marilyn Rodgers set the terms for a two-year exclusive license with Dr. Stanley Grossman owner of Bloomsbury Innovations, LTD to distribute a unique 100% effective proprietary test kit for beverages (non-alcoholic, too ) that detects 60 known compounds, commonly known as date rape drugs (www.drinkdetective.com). Test marketing shows that having this kit available is like a personal safety system and often is enough to deter predators. Without having to use it, it can be compared to having a tire jack in the trunk of a car, something a driver will not feel safe without, and hopefully may never have to use. A Drink Detective is like carrying a personal safety system in your pocket that you thankfully may never have to use.

For the past two Decembers, the Wales Police Force provided 1000 Drink Detectives in a small town along with a brief PR Campaign and a poster. They reduced sexual assault, robbery, and indecent behavior by 15% in a week-long trial. (See Attachment F). The potential of this product to bring awareness and protect youth from consequences of drugs, drinking, and sexual perversity is worthy of consideration.

Safe Day Events terms of the license includes an option to purchase 49% of Bloomsbury. This product has attracted hundreds of letters of intent from individuals worldwide. Marilyn began researching drink spiking in December 2006. She was a victim of a drink spike in 1977 48 hours before she gave birth to a 3 month premature baby boy. This was not a happy moment in her life, and for Marilyn and her family the work of Safe Day Events is worth the effort.

Marilyn’s goal is to brand Drink Detectives differently so that younger children can learn safer drinking techniques long before they are prone to socializing out of their homes in mixed circles. She is consulting with Crime Stoppers, the National Guard, The American Screening Company and others who are valuable members of her Advisory Board and part of her team. Securing a Purchase Order of 50,000 units will set up a new label during manufacturing. Until then, Marilyn uses a circular sticker label on each Drink Detective to represent the Drink Detective properly, which is that non-alcoholic drinks are also spiked. To supplement this Purchase Order, Marilyn is researching various fund raiser models and strategic alliances with youth clubs, schools, and programs so that this life-saving product can be distributed widely.

On January 15, 2007, Marilyn Rodgers accepted a position as Program Director for the Internet-based Women’s Safety Education Group (www.wseg.org). On May 20, 2008, Marilyn gave a short presentation on “safety” along with having Jai and Daniel perform an acoustic set of music at the Pearl Harbor Health and Wellness Fair for Coordinator Mark McFarland, 479-6545, mark.mcfarland@navy.mil. On May 22, 2008, Marilyn gave a 30-minute “Safety Tips” Talk at the Pacific Club in Honolulu for the Professional Business Women's Network Luncheon. Contact Sharon Mujtabaa, VP, 623-1174, captionlady@hawaii.rr.com. On May 24th, Lanikai Elementary School had their annual “Concert Under the Stars. The Buckz Boyz performed at 8:30 pm and sold out 50 CD, and the elementary school students screamed, danced, and sang along to their entertaining set while parents sat under the stars in amazement.

Safe Day Events program is designed for students regardless of racial, ethnic or cultural identity, or religious orientation. Safe Day Events goals are, as written on www.safedayevents.com, to specifically assist individuals to choose non-violent responses, to feel safer in mixed social circles, and to help communities to thrive.

C. Quality Assurance and Evaluation

In order to evaluate its’ effectiveness, Safe Day Events uses a simple A/B/A Intervention Design Assessment Model. Schools complete a questionnaire (A), perhaps The Youth At Risk Behavior Survey, a few weeks prior to a scheduled Safe Day Event to assess current beliefs, attitudes, and responses. The same day as a Safe Day Event (B), participants complete an open-ended set of questions to determine their satisfaction and opinions about the program. Within the following month, the first questionnaire (A) complete the same questions to assess changes in beliefs, attitudes, and response after a program. Survey results are compiled, analyzed, and a “How Safe You Feel” School Report Card is given to each school. In this way, need for further interventions become evident.

Data collected from 1991 to 2003, by Dr. Meda Chesney-Lind in “How Safe Are Hawaii’s School’s Volume 1” and in “Arrest Trends, Gang Involvement & Truancy in Hawaii”, shows that a Youth At Risk Behavior Survey is place in some Hawaii Schools. This survey will continue to be used to determine Safe Day Events effectiveness. The following set of questions taken from Newsweek 2003 also furnishes valuable information for an evaluative ABA Design tool. A Specialist who designs evaluative tools will be consulted to refine our assessments.

(1) Do you personally feel safe from violence in school?

(2) Rank your biggest concerns in school (1 being biggest, 2 the next, etc.) My grades, my riends/social life, my safety, peer pressure.

(20 - 23) Male or female___, Grade ___,School____________

Optional Essay in 200 words or less is: tell us what could make life safer for today’s teenagers, OR about an incident when someone at school helped you at a time when you felt unsafe.

D. Coordination of Services

Safe Day Events is not yet in possession of letters of agreement from schools and programs in Hawaii relevant to the proposed prevention services outlined in this document because Safe Day Events is a new legal entity. A 501-C3 non-profit organization NY CitiWorks Federal ID# 13-3083244 is offering to sponsor our program. We are determining how to do so in the State of Hawaii.

All indications from informal discussions with school administrators and program coordinators in Hawaii is that when Safe Day Events is ready to begin, programs will welcome this event. Many programs need fund raisers. Using Safe Day Packs gives programs the potential to generate thousands of dollars of revenue. Safe Day Events has generated directories of intent from mainland individuals who would like to work with Safe Day Events when it is ready to widen out nationally.

IV. Service Delivery

Just as Earth Day took decades to become established to bring awareness to the environmental issues we face today, so too Safe Day starts with students and teachers who want to make a difference in our personal safety. Here in Hawaii, it is possible to make a difference in one more individual’s life in the future, as long as we care to reach out and share what we know works today.

Many large projects, even those with healthy Research and Development Departments, find that great ideas and new programs are often created and developed by smaller, more agile programs. This is why Safe Day Events has the potential to open many new doors for kids who want to sing and play music, to be a part of a group, and especially for those who are challenged with poor models, unwholesome verbal conditioning, and harsh incidences. These circumstances make it difficult for them to imagine and utilize the power they have inside of themselves to change their futures.

Safe Day Events is focused on developing a community of youth attracted to playing and listening to good music, performing, helping each other, safe on-line communities, having fun playing games, and writing lyrics, poems, art, all to empower them to make changes and continue to grow in a healthy direction.

With a family-friendly vehicle and content-rich educational programs, Safe Day Events helps win the high stakes “battle for the mind” of our youth. The future of entertainment is interactive. Breaking students free of violent and mindless current games is a challenge, but it is being done.

Safe Day Events delivers enough family friendly content, fun, exciting, and educational information all in one package. This appeals to universal family values and cuts across gender and demographic lines, allowing access to activities and musicians that cross-promotes with other valuable programs in our communities. Safe Day Events targets mass market appeal in the entertainment, education, and activities we provide. We expect to establish partnerships, improve our systems, develop our accounting, reverse negative effects of adult entertainment, assist youth to make healthy choices, provide low-cost safety education as a pro-active way to reduce violence, and develop valuable partnerships with groups that share the same goals.

Set Up & Orientation Work Plan

Once site location and logistics are set up between Program Director and School Administrator(s), the Program Director schedules a time within a month of the event to visit the host program. Program Director and Operations Manager meet at the site with school representatives and distribute a “Safe Day Pack”. This contains a survey (to be used for evaluating effectiveness of this program), a plan, a resource library of videos, books, brochures, and resources, a checklist outlining what is coming soon to their venue, specific logistics, staff expectations. Fund Raising through advanced tickets and Safe Day Pack pre-sales is also planned.

Public Relations Work Plan

Public Service Announcement, multi-media PR to “Make a Better World w/ Safe Day Events” as outlined by our Advisor Mr. Beryl Wolk (www.berylsworld.com) goes through 4 phases, commonly known as crawling, walking, running. Student participants are encouraged to take on responsibilities to learn sequencing and marketing for Safe Day Events with our staff members throughout the year.

Phase 1 -

1a. Website /Merchant Banking /Fulfillment /Call Center
1b. On line Animation (unique welcome to the site).
1c. Video linked to website (Infomercial)
1d. Clubs & Benefits – incentives to participate
1e. Merchant banking

Phase 2 -

3a. Radio- (30- Second Spots)
Radio- (60- Second Spots)
3b. Television- Commercials (30-Second)
Television- Commercials (60-Second)

Phase 4 -

This complete comprehensive, multi-media program is developed after the successful completion of a series of tests designed to refine such things as compelling message, target audience, type of media and other factors that maximize the efficiency/effectiveness quotient. Most plans utilize a combination of a P.I. (per inquiry) and/or discounted media resources.

Regardless of how much PR is completed, “Safe Day Packs” are handed out at each event. There is a sign-up registration sheet for parent volunteers to support future Safe Day Events. Inter-agency collaboration is encouraged. Club memberships, event evaluation sheets, and a Post-Safety Assessment Survey is given to host facilities at each event.

Safe Day Event Work Plan

After audience is assembled, the show begins. The script is in the development stages and will align with the theme from the songs on our CD, "Simmer Down" and "Livin' In Hawaii". The following narrative is a powerful motivator for prompting discussion, along with audience participation to begin our program. However, much collaboration will allow the best of the best to be used in our program:

“A Different Drug Problem” by a Concerned Citizen

The other day someone at a store in our town read that a methamphetamine lab had been found in an old farmhouse in the adjoining county and he asked a rhetorical question, “Why didn't we have a drug problem when you and I were growing up?” I replied, I had a drug problem when I was young. I was drug to church on Sunday morning. I was drug to church for weddings and funerals. I was drug to family reunions and community socials no matter what the weather. I was drug by my ears when I was disrespectful to adults. I was also drug to the woodshed when I disobeyed my parents, told a lie, brought home a bad report card, did not speak with respect, spoke ill of the teacher or the preacher, or if I didn't put forth my best effort in everything that was asked of me. I was drug to the kitchen sink to have my mouth washed out with soap if I uttered a profanity. I was drug out to pull weeds in mom's garden. I was drug to the homes of family, friends, and neighbors to help out some poor soul who had no one to mow the yard, repair the clothesline, or chop some firewood, and if my mother had ever known that I took a single dime as a tip for this kindness, she would have drug me back to the woodshed. Those drugs are still in my veins and they affect my behavior in everything I do, say, or think. They are stronger than cocaine, crack, or heroin, and if today's children had this kind of drug problem, America would be a better place. God bless the parents who drugged us.

Script writers and community programs with dramatic interpretations of the issues and concerns are being auditioned for events in the future.

Personal Safety Plan

A personal plan provides students with tips, techniques, and circumstances where students may need to:

(1) deter unsafe situations with the powerful right attitude and super awareness,
(2) deter unsafe situations using the right choice of words and voice,
(3) deter unsafe situations using simple techniques such as how to get out of holds and grabs, etc. and (4) tips on what to do to remove oneself safely from escalated incidences.

Related safety tools, such as highway safety signs, cell phones are mentioned, however, anything which falls in the category of “simple stronger techniques” is not discussed in our program. Students learn steps 1 to 4 as part of this personal safety plan. Parents and professionals who would like to have information about resources that teach self-defense are available through our advisors, but Safe Day Events relies on proactive prevention and non-violent positive choices. Unless a fundraiser for the Drink Detectives has been approved, we mention them as tools available, and do no sales at our school Safe Day Event.

Musical Performance Plan

The music of the performers, at this time, three young men (ages 23, 20, 18) and three seasoned men (their dad and uncles) is multi-cultural multi-generations positive upbeat original music with dance and sing-a-long lyrics expressing and cultivating healthy living.

Below are two songs, for example:

“No Time To Waste”, written by Jai Rodgers (Age 23)

Pack my bags head out the door, not too much left anymore
Yes, yes I’m ready to go, run free and start the show.

You can come with me if you want too,
destined for great things only YOU can stop you
The gold is on the other side,
I come ready to ride, ready to ride.

Like a dog without a leash, a free bird
Flying high, Flying high.
Eagle eyes on the prize

No time to waste, I got the sun shine across my face,
My cups half full, and I know Jahs in my place

Yes you can come with me if you want too
destined for great things, only YOU can stop you
Feel the drum beat don’t stop,
Nobodys gonna hold me down,
Nobodys gonna break my stride
I’m ready to ride, ready to ride, ready to fly, ready to fly.

Lend me your ears, take heed to what I say,
It’s your time, time to shine today
Keep on the path of the right way
And your blessings will be abundant, oh yeah.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Livin’ In This World Today”, written by Danny Rodgers (Age 18)

Livin’ in this world today,
We’ve got so much pleasure, so much pain.
if we can find each other,
We’ll be alright.

Chorus: If we work together
And love one another,
And help each other to stop this pain forever.

We’ve got to work work work work together
And love one another
Help each other
Oh yeah, lal al la lala ooh

And if we work together, we’ll be alright
And if we help each other, we can win.

Six or seven songs are performed in a 30-45 minute set, followed by performers and staff taking questions and answers, discussing issues and concerns, and handing out to each student a personal and autographed “Safe Day Pack”. At this time, Safe Day Packs include a “cool & safe” booklet with safety tips, a book cover or poster, and a nifty sticker. With the support of our continuous fund raising efforts and community sponsorships, a DVD music video of the best songs, including a DVD compilation with other celebrities who are endorsing this program, some safe tools, such as a Drink Detectives, highway safety signs, a complementary membership to the fun, exciting pre-approved website browser Club Tuki, and other incentives are included. Increases in content and value of the Safe Day Pack are anticipated. Performers remain as long as allowed to talk to students, encourage friendships, and establish a sense of belonging.

Follow-Up Work Plan

After a Safe Day Event, a follow-up date is scheduled with Administrators to determine additional needs, answer concerns, and pick up completed evaluation and assessment surveys.
After review, analysis, and reporting is completed and filed, a Report Card and “Safe Space” Sticker is sent to each school in time for a year-end assembly. Future fund-raising opportunities are arranged for programs interested in continuing to raise funds. “Teams” of volunteers register to be Leaders-in-Training to support the production of future public inter-agency “safe” events.

Based on statistics derived from our assessment and evaluation surveys and tools in determining whether our program is effective in reducing violent choices and making mixed social circles safer in our target population, then Safe Day Events works hand-in-hand with the community and participates in additional off campus events that focus on providing education, awareness, and tools to increase everyone‘s personal safety.

Business Administrator Work Plan

Accounting records, fiscal reporting, and filing are kept in order by Business Administrator who are employed for the Safe Day Events Program for 5 hours per week and complete information as required by the funding source. Safe Day Events Business Administrator maintains statistical, clinical, and administrative records pertaining to services of this RFP.

APPENDIX A: ADVERTISING/SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITY

APPENDIX B: BUSINESS AGREEMENT

Safe Day Events, (www.safedayevents.com) together with Hawaii’s Buck Rodgers Entertainment Corporation (www.buckzboyz.com), is focused on cultivating safe and healthy living among young people through entertainment and education. The purpose of this overview is to clarify our dream and to find business individuals and team members. By no means is this plan our goal; it is just the beginning of a worthwhile journey to make a better world with safer days and nights for everyone, young and old.

1- HISTORY

Founders are Marilyn Rodgers, Department of Education Master Teacher and her husband Buck Rodgers of Buck Rodgers Entertainment and producer of Olelo TV Show "Star Tracks".
Their two sons, Jai (23) and Danny (18) known as the Buckz Boyz Band perform and host their dad’s TV show, compose tunes, play several instruments and have played with their parents in
The Allright Family Band since early childhood. Bill “Buck” is son of Bob Wills & the Texas Playboys original bass player, Merle Rodgers, who sang “Antonio Rose”. Buck, with a mighty career in entertainment himself, is also second cousin to Buddy Holly, rock/pop star legend.

Their family turned tragedy into triumph after the 3-month premature birth in 1977 of their first son, David, and subsequent years of cerebral palsy, as a result of Marilyn sipping a drug-laced ounce of fruit punch put there by an unknown predator. Compelled by their awareness and limitations of birth practices of that day, they pioneered gentle childbirth choices and with entertainment and education taught in the early 80's with an award winning video by Point of View Productions called, “Water Baby”, about their daughter Merlenna’s unique water birth. Using education, entertainment, and related products and services they combined this effectively to enhance audience awareness and cultivate healthy outcomes then, and again they want to do it now.

Danny & Jai Rodgers, both water babies themselves, and their Buckz Boyz Band are the first celebrity endorsers of Safe Day Events. Their 2 CD’s have received great reviews. Their musical endeavor is to advance their career by signing with a major recording/entertainment concern. A DVD of two of their tunes, “Simmer Down” and “Another Day” may be viewed on www.musicdebutradio.com. These boys host their own tv show in Hawaii every Friday evening at 7:30 PM on Olelo.org (Channel 56).

2 - THE CAUSE

Safe Day Events intends to launch a national awareness campaign with a flagship product known as the Drink Detective (www.drinkdetective.com) a comprehensive drink tester to detect over 60 drugs commonly known as date rape drugs. This product has been proven, with proper use and awareness, to reduce date rape, robbery and other predator-related crimes. Drink Detective website has a 15-second video demonstrating how it works. Buckz Boyz, Buck Rodgers Entertainment, and Safe Day Events will promote this product along with scores of other fantastic products that cultivate good character.

According to The Commonwealth Fund 1998 Survey, one in five women will be sexually assaulted in their lifetime (Collins KS SC, Joseph S, et al, 1999). Sexual assault, robbery, and violence have been observed on our college campuses. There is a strong relationship between sexual assault and drug use. In a study, "Estimate of the Incidence of Drug Facilitated Sexual Assault in the USA", 61% of 144 subjects were taking drugs, 35% were raped. (Negrusz, Juhascik, Gaensslen, 2005)

Their team stresses and exemplifies harmony and a spirit of community among otherwise diverse populations. Appreciation of music and other forms of art and entertainment, LIVE web streaming video productions with a "pay-per-view" format, and a great celebrity line-up have made this project what it is today and what it will be tomorrow.

This “winning business entertainment brand” is a model worth emulating because good entertainment inspires positive emotions, good education brings awareness, and good related products and services provides tools.

3- OUR MARKET

Safe Day Events is based on the need to protect women and children with truly meaningful and effective "safety" education and to reduce violence against women and children by providing models for men to emulate.

Young people, adolescents and young adults with an active lifestyle are most at-risk on college and school campuses, at sporting events, concerts, malls, stores, restaurants, bars, private clubs and parties.

Safe Day Events will help individuals choose non-violent healthy responses, help participants feel safer in mixed social circles (day and night), and as part of a safer community will help businesses thrive.

4- ACTIVITIES

With a Program Director, Safety Education Coordinator, Event Coordinator, Musical Performance Coordinator, and Public Relations Coordinator, Safe Day Events is in a position to succeed. Promoted by Yaktivate.com (www.yaktivate.com), a hub in the pod casting and video-streaming network, and other SEO networks, Safe Day Events will achieve their objectives with entertainment, education and related products using:

- "A Celebrity Program". Contracts and agreements will be made with a variety of additional celebrities who are positive role modeto support our drug and alcohol “non-abuse” policy.

- "A Zero Tolerance Venue Program (ZTV Show)". We will enlist and register venues and businesses that stand against predators, under-age drinking, drunk driving, drink spiking, date rape, robbery, and assault. Those enlisted will be promoted to visitor bureau, travel sites, and commerce bureaus as safe places to go, thus helping businesses thrive.

-"The Women and Kids Safety Education Group" (www.wseg.org). This program will teach a standardized and integrated safety education presentation, funded through the sale of women and children’s safety products and corporate contributions. Basic self-defense skills, predator awareness, and the knowledge of how to develop a personal safety plan have been a part of this program since 2005.

"The LCE Black Box" (www.4-platinuminc.com) projects live streaming video from any event delivering pay-per-view content around the world. Video conferencing, television, web casting, FM Radio, PC, telephone, DVD player and burner capability (through on easily portable system), right into your living room via cable, DSL or satellite technology. SAFE DAY EVENTS will bring our black box, lease one, sell one, and train your team to use one to fund your favorite charity, create extra revenue streams, and educate others in hard to reach lesser developed areas.

“VIP Business/Leisure Retreats” feature home-like vacations in Oahu surrounded by the best beaches on the planet. Clients experience elegance with the latest technology (see above) and protocols for musical recording, video, CD, web, and multi-media with a pampered cutting edge lifestyle. Starting with a 12,000 sq. ft. property, a swimming pool with 3 bedrooms, 2 private suites, spectacular views, and vacation opportunities, this project has multiple, simple revenue generators that reduce risk, increase profitability, and have rapid growth potential.

We will recruit eight trainer /celebrities and program coordinators/celebrities to present to 1,500 individuals per month and to unlimited individuals and families on LIVE web streaming video pay-per-view with the LCE Black Box, networked by Yaktivate and others.

Participants will learn:

(1) how to deter an unsafe situation with a better attitude and awareness,
(2) how to deter an unsafe situation with the right choice of words and your voice,
(3) how to deter an unsafe situation using simple techniques, such as how to get out of several holds or grabs and
(4) how to use stronger techniques, if needed.

Related safety tools, such as highway safety signs (www.headups.com), pepper spray key chains, drink detectives, Dating-Without-Drama literature, and personal safety plans will be linked to 50 other products and information at www.safedayevents.com.

5- PAST RECENT EVENTS:

Safe Day Events has an advisory team of members from various expert groups, such as Crime Stoppers, National Guard, US Navy, City & County of Honolulu, Leutenant Governor of Hawaii. Marilyn has submitted a Grant to both State and Federal Grant Agencies. This document is posted for viewing on www.buckzboyz.com, first tab on the left. During the month of May 2008, the Buckz Boyz performed for the Waialua Polo Fields Game, Lanikai Elementary School’s “Concert Under the Stars”, and the Pearl Harbour Health & Wellness Fair. Now they are in collaboration with Cirque de Hawaii to promote a gala event for their company, and have a goal to sponsor the New Jersey Comedy Festival’s 51 College Tour for 2008-9 www.newjerseycomedyfestival.com . With sponsor/advertiser support, this will be a good strategy to move Safe Day Events forward and to achieve the expected results below.

6- EXPECTED RESULTS

Marilyn Rodgers, (with over 30 years of experience developing and teaching programs for students with behavioral and emotional challenges, with the support of her husband Buck Rodgers, with her band and other entertainers, and with her team of advisors and mentors), has outlined these overall objectives and assessments:

a. Establish partnerships with independent contractors to provide a fast track path to the ultimate goal of establishing a Senior Trainer/Celebrity and 8 trainer/celebrities.

b. Maintain and improve the system, in technical, entertainment, educational, and operational areas.

c. Develop administration, accounting and bookkeeping, information technology management, sales/marketing, training, and operations (product and customer service).

d. Build a company that substantially reverses the measured negative affects of adult entertainment and restores and maintains elegance, romance, and magnificence in the entertainment circles that we influence.
